[QUOTE="Mattsmom277, post: 279791, member: 4264"] You all confused me with the name changes LMAO. Well hello again, you two who i thought were strangers but in fact aren't at all haha I'll have to pay more attention to the spork thing. Or I'll just keep reading with a puzzled look on my face. I've cracked up at many a thread while lurking lol. The MS thing. Wow. Well it was torture not knowing and the longer the testing and waiting and testing and waiting went, I ended up knowing it was MS long before a doctor confirmed it. I'm not on the best medication treatment, I'm reluctant to start injecting myself with needles at home. I'm working up to it. Some medications are helping for some problems. Good periods, bad periods. Now less good periods and more medium periods with the odd bad period thrown in. Definitly adapting things. The physical problems have truly changed my abilites, altered dreams of certain jobs or holidays or activities etc. That part has been a true struggle. On an emotional level, after a struggle, I began to see that through this, I can learn alot about myself. To find joy in things I took for granted before. I see the world through different eyes now. It is truly life altering. Physically I can't do much to control what this disease is goign to throw at me. But emotionally and spiritually it can really alter your life in wonderous ways. Kind of hard to explain. But in short, I have started enjoying the simple things. I take NOTHING for granted. I've learned to stop sweating the small stuff. Gosh, so much I've learned, all because of hearing that I had MS. It truly is a journey. For all the bad part of the journey, parallel to it is a wonderous personal growth that has me truly happy within and grateful for my life, kids, what little i have, etc. Odd, that an illness can be so powerful BEYOND the physical. Its nice to see you both again. I am so glad that I know your original names now LMAO. We'll be seeing each other round :) *contented sigh* Its good to be posting again! [/QUOTE]
